Erica:
I'm like the dumb girl that doesn't get it. I've never been the dumb girl before. It ain't great.

Harry:
Let's just calm down. I had these plans before I even met you. I mean, I do like seeing you. I do.

Erica:
[scoff] Yeah.

Harry:
I'm always surprised by it.

Erica:
Surprised by it? What was I thinking?

Harry:
I have never lied to you, I have always told you some version of the truth.

Erica:
The truth doesn't have versions, okay?

Harry:
Will you cut me a little slack? My life has just been turned upside down.

Erica:
Mine too!

Harry:
Well, then let's just each get our bearings.

Erica:
I don't want my bearings. I've had my bearings my whole goddamn life. I feel something with you I never really knew existed. Do you know what that's like, after a 20-year marriage to feel something for another person that is so...? That... Oh, Right. Right. Not your problem. God. Do you know that I've written this, but I never really got it? Do you know what this is?

Harry:

Erica:
[Erica kisses Harry] This is heartbroken. How that's for impervious.

Harry:
You're killing me.

Erica:
I just wish that it had lasted more than a week.

Harry:
Me too.

Erica:
That's a terrible thing to say. You know, the life I had before you I knew how to do that. I could do that forever. But now, look at me. What am I going to do? What am I going to do with all this?

Harry:
Erica. Can you wait just a second? The truth is, I... I just... I don't know how to be a boyfriend.

Erica:
That's what you have to say after all of this? That you don't know how to be a boyfriend?

Harry:
That's not a small thing.

Erica:
[shakes head] Are we done?

Harry:
I don't know.

Erica:
Oh, my god.
